We heard a man say, not long ago, "Wonder what some people are thinking about, who never go to church while they live, and only once after they live. What will the say to the Master? 0, I suppose they will tell him about their sore feet, or the time they got dog-bit, or the hair they got in their throat, or the time they had their corn stepped on, and ever since, have kept out of the crowd. Everybody has u 'good' excuse. Uut it makes a fellow laugh when they put in the varia tions." Say, folks, put it this waj and tell the truth: . "I don't care anything about these things." All right, we know where to put you down. New Circular on liiiprinln Ihilrj Herds.

Inventories of purchased or raised crops and livestock on hand at the beginning of the year which were submitted last winter in making in come tax returns will be accepted, according to a letter received by the University Department of Rural Eco nomics from Income Tax Collector Looniis at Omaha. This reverses the stand taken a few weeks, ago by the Omaha office. Letters sent out to formers in June stated that these in ventories could not include crops and livestock on the farm. It is now ac knowledged that these letters were in error. Inventories should in clude both purchased and farm rais ed crops and stock. According to this letter, farmers who were so ad vised to omit farm raised crops and stock, and did so, should take tho matter up with Collector Loomis at Omaha.

There Is only one way to cure catarrhal deafneas, ami that Is by a conatltutlonal remedy. Catarrhal Deafnna la caused by an ln llamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube la Inflamed you have a rumbling sound or Im perfect hearing, and whon It U entirely closed. Deafness is the result. Unless the Inflammation can bo reduced and this tube reftorcd to Its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever. Many cases of deafness are caused by catarrh, which Is an Inflamed condition of the mucous sur faces. Hall's Catarrh Medicine acts thru the blood on the mucous surfaces of the system. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Catarrhal Deafness that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Medicine. Cir culars free. AH Druggists, 7&c. F. J. CHENEY & CO.. Toledo, O.
